[phpesp-dev] phpESP test script

[James E. F. <jf...@ac...>]

Hey Developers,
  I've implemented a phpESP System Test and Information
script.  If you've used Horde code before it should look
familiar.  You can take a look at it on the sf.net demo[1],
and look at the code in CVS[2].  I tried to add lines for
every knob and twiddle that has/could cause problems for
phpESP.  Please let me know if there are any other things
we should test.  Also, if someone feels like it, it would
be nice to add a bit of <style> to the header so that the
fonts would be a tad smaller (-1).

[1] http://phpesp.sf.net/demo-current/admin/test.php
[2] http://phpesp.sf.net/cvs/admin/test.php?rev=.

Oh, and the things that fail on sf.net do so correctly.
And yes, sessions are broken on sf.net (though I've
implemented a work around for both demos, but not the test
script.)

It will be there by 1.6 Final.  So far there have only been
release candidates for 1.6.

The test.php page is still missing in the 1.6 releases, although it is
mentioned in the installation procedure.

5. Testing phpESP

   Once you have configured your web server, PHP, and phpESP, bring up
   the included test page in your Web browser to ensure that all
   necessary prerequisites have been met.  If you installed phpESP as
   described above, the URL to the test page would be

      http://your-server/phpESP/admin/test.php

   Check that your PHP and PEAR versions are acceptably recent, and
   that all required module capabilities are present.  Then note the
   "Session counter: 1" line under "PHP Sessions", and reload the page.
   The session counter should increment.

Summary: Randomisation

Initial Comment:
Response codes inside a question should be possible to 
randomise.

There is a psychological effect on people to 
influence the human mind to read from top to bottom. This means in 
a multiple question for instance, the top codes will most likely have 
a "bias" to be more clicked in rather than low response codes (top 
would mean higher up on the screen).

So what should be 
done here is the option of having a randomisation box so question 
get's randomised. Also important here is that some items must be 
able to be kept in bottom such as "None of the above" or "Refuse to 
Answer" or "don't know". So here as in the other request there 
would be a need for a "no control" of certain items, or should it be 
called "not randomised"?

well; it would change the result exactly because of the fact 
that this laziness only kicks in after a couple of questions.

Any researcher knows that the first questions you ask in a survey tend to 
get "higher quality" than questions asked later in the questionnaire. The 
more questions you push someone to answer, the more it effects the 
quality...

So why do you randomise then?

Let's say you 
have 5 different questions to benchmark a product on different variables 
that might interfer. On a phone for instance that would be perhaps 
batteries, design, size, functionality.... 

If they are not 
randomised and you do a regression analysis afterwards, the values will 
be messed up. However if you do randomisation, you know that the bias 
will be equal on all of the questions asked and you can therefor make a 
more correct analysis. 

Would that answer your question?

so what you're saying is that people are too lazy to read the 
options and tend to just tick/select the uppermost choices. If 
that's the case, how does randomising the choices to a 
question solve anything?

No they should not.  Untarring under a Unix environment will properly
"case" the files/folders.

[phpesp-dev] IIS and Basic Auth - exampel

[Moshe W. <wei...@te...>]

I was unable to get our Basic Auth to work on IIS, even using PHP as an 
ISAPI module. Knowing that other projects had solved this, I went 
hunting and grabbed some code from phpMyAdmin. So I've attached a new 
manage.php which works on IIS. It is a bit of a hack, but it 
demonstrates that this is plausible. I'm hoping that someone takes this 
example and submits a more elegant implementation for CVS consideration.

Search for the string IIS to see what I've added.

FYI, the file from phpMyAdmin which served as a model is at
http://cvs.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/phpmyadmin/phpMyAdmin/libraries/auth/http.auth.lib.php3?rev=1.9&content-type=text/vnd.viewcvs-markup

[phpesp-dev] ANNOUCEMENT: phpESP 1.6 RC2 released

[James E. F. <jf...@ac...>]

There was a bug in phpESP version 1.6 RC1 that caused the
results of mulit-page surveys to be stored incorrectly if
the new 'resume' feature was _not_ used.  Please update to
1.6 RC2 immediately if you are running 1.6 RC1.  See the
change log for a few other changes since RC1.

Thanks to Klaas Chielens <klaas AT chielens.net> for
pointing out this bug.

[phpesp-dev] [patch] question tab label change

Here is my patch to change the wording from "Field" to "Question"  in

Re: [phpesp-dev] I can not find your includes ... check your ini settings

[Matthew G. <gr...@mu...>]

What version are you running?

Check with your ISP to get the "true" file system path to your web
space.  Issuing the "pwd" command from a shell on the ISP might tell
you.  Use this path in the phpESP.ini.
Also, make sure the phpESP.ini paths in:
admin/manage.php
public/handler.php
public/handler-prefix.php
public/survey.php

all point to the correct location.

- 5 - N/A", I want to be able to implement a scale
like: "Great - OK - Opinion Free - Not OK - Sucks -
N/A" or anything else (and blank values, especially for
interim points on the scale, would be acceptable).

Related to this RFE, I have implemented a version of Rate 
where tooltips are displayed when hovering over any radio 
button in the matrix. The data for the tooltips is currently 
embedded in an array in a new file. Tooltip code is provided 
by http://mojavelinux.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=127

If there is interest, I'd be happy to post the source for this 
enhancement.

Yes, logart. That is the problem. One idea is to change the
storage model for the surveys from SQL to XML, which would
make this type of feature possible.

The tough part about doing this is that you would have to
capture both the reponse text value, along with the
numerical value.

Right now, the response_rank table is set up  with all INT
datatypes. There would have to be anther field added to that
table of type VARCHAR or something that would contain the
textual meaning of the answer. You need to capture the text
along with the number in case you change the text values of
the ratings later on. You would then skew the data because,
for example, "1" used to mean good but now "1" is bad. If
you don't save the "good" or "bad" along with each record,
you would never know the numbers represent.

right?

[phpesp-dev] [horde] horde license question (docs/*) (fwd)

Subject: [horde] horde license question (docs/*)

I see the Horde API/framework is licensed under the LGPL.
I would like to base the docs for a project I am working
for on the docs/* files in the Horde project.  Mainly, I'd
like to adapt the Horde INSTALL file for my project since
it is so well written.  I intend to include a footer on all
docs files I get from the Horde project like this:

-----------------------------------------------------------
This document was obtained from the Horde project, and
modified for phpESP.  We would like to thank the Horde
project for providing such clean documentation.  Due to the
source, this document must be licensed under the GNU Lesser
General Public License (LGPL).  The LGPL applies *only* to
this document, all other parts of phpESP are licensed under
the terms in the "LICENSE" file in the main directory.  A
copy of the LGPL is available at:
http://www.gnu.org/copyleft/lesser.txt
-----------------------------------------------------------

However, I'd like to omit references to LGPL, and just
state the source as from the Horde project.  Would any one
object to that?  I will not use any code from Horde, just
some of horde/docs/*.  The license for phpESP can be found
at: (BSD like)
  http://phpesp.sf.net/cvs/LICENSE?rev=.

Thanks,
-James
